Now there are Four Squares

sewing the corners is still a challenge, but they look better on each new sqare. This method means that the backing is included already.

Birdie and Bear for Bente

 

You may have seen these prints a long time ago, but then I wasn't able to integrate them into my quilting work. I hadn't learnt the korak method which now is my key to piecing.

I guess I'll abstain from the classic methods for good, I should have started earlier to learn them; until now, I haven't been successful with them. So you'll probably never see any classic patterns from me exept log cabin.

Quilting again in the bright sunshine

Yesterday, I received a gift from a friend -- more scraps in brightest colors. Thank you! My pills. So I decided to let my wips be wips and start another. I have so many handprints with whimsical animals, and I've been thinking of such a quilt a lot. This time I will sew finished squares -- with backing fabric, and it will be for my grandniece Bente. I don't know yet what it will be -- if I do a baby quilt, she will not be a baby any more by the time I can give it to her. I'm thinking of a crawling mat on which she can sit in the garden oder something like it. No idea how far I'm gonna get.
